Lucifer’s Hidden Name
(excerpt from Chapter 1)
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (Gen. 1:1)
Now the earth was formless, and void, darkness was over the surface of the deep.
(Gen. 1:2)
There are two primary theories concerning how the earth came to be in a formless, empty, dark, and fluid condition. The first is called the gap theory. The second is called the chaos theory. The simplest way to explain the chaos theory is that when God created the Earth in Genesis 1:1, it was basically step 1 in the seven steps or days of his creation program. In other words, God did not intend to leave the earth in a formless, empty, dark, and fluid condition.
The gap theory, on the other hand, says that something happened to the earth between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 to make it "formless and void." This theory is based on the Hebrew translation of three words from Genesis 1:2—was, formless, and void. The word for was comes from the verb hayah, and it carries the translation "to become or became." It also carries the key meaning of "I am" in the name of Yahweh. The words for formless and void are tohu wa bohu; these words carry the translation of "a desolate, worthless thing." Every occurrence of these words—tohu wa bohu—in the Scriptures is associated with God’s judgment. It implies that God intervened and that some catastrophe took place on planet Earth as a result of His displeasure.
In the book of the prophet Jeremiah, we have a perfect example of the words hayah and tohu wa bohu. At first glance, one might think that the scripture containing these words is the same as in Genesis 1:2. However, when we closely examine the scripture, we discover that the prophet isn’t specifically referring to this text. In effect, it’s a prolongation of what occurred there, or God’s judgment on Mystery Babylon.
I beheld the earth, and lo it was without form, and void; and the heavens, they had no light. I beheld the mountains and lo they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I beheld, and lo there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. I beheld and lo the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities were broken down at the presence of the lord and His fierce anger. (Jer. 4:23–27 KJV)
In this prophecy, we have God’s displeasure or fierce anger as the reason for the earth becoming "formless, and void." So, by interpretation, Genesis 1:1, 2 would read: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth became a desolate, worthless thing because of God’s judgment." This opens up the question of why God would judge this ancient planet.
The answer can be found within the verb was. I earlier suggested that this word carries the name Yahweh or "I am." The Hebrew Septuagint (pre-Christian Greek version of the Jewish Scriptures) has the key meaning of was as ego eimi ho on; translated, it means "I myself am ego" or "I am He." In addition, the Strong’s translators from The New Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible say that within this verb is the self-designation of God, as "I will be God or I am God"—clearly a suggestive overtone that the judgments of God in Genesis 2 and Jeremiah 4 are perhaps linked by this so-called self-designation. This can be reinforced by the following verse:
"Thou (Lucifer) wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created till iniquity was found in thee. . . . Thine heart was lifted up, because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness. (Ezek. 28:15–17 KJV)"
Here we have Lucifer’s heart at one point in time being "perfect"; yet notice the verse "Thine heart was lifted up." Now look at the word was; it’s hayah (or "I myself am ego"), the verb from Genesis 2 and Jeremiah 4 that caused the world to become "formless and void."
Early one morning, after hours of mulling this concept of a self-designation over and over in my mind, I decided to turn to the Old Testament book of Isaiah and a passage about Lucifer and the original sin (his heartfelt intent of dethroning God). While I was scrutinizing the text, I noticed that one word in particular stood out above the rest. Curious, I ran the word through my Strong’s Concordance, and what I found literally took my breath away. I immediately realized that this word all but unmasked the world’s last dictator.
In the New Testament book of Thessalonians, the apostle Paul, speaking about this dictator, suggests that this unmasking, or "revealing" as he calls it, is connected to a self-designation in which this dictator (called the man of lawlessness) professes himself to be God.
"Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come [Judgment of Mystery Babylon] until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
(2 Thess. 2:3, 4)"
Interestingly, most Christians have taken this so-called revealing―dubbed the "Abomination of Desolation" by Daniel the prophet and later by Jesus—to mean the unmasking of this future dictator as the Antichrist. However, I am now convinced that this revealing won’t unmask the Antichrist but instead expose the hidden name of Lucifer, a secret that was sealed by a type of time lock that couldn’t be understood until the days when its fulfillment drew nigh.
The word revealed comes from the Greek word apokalypto, from which we get the English word apocalypse. It simply means "to disclose" or "to manifest a thing that was previously a secret or unknown."
Deuteronomy says, "The secret things belong to the Lord, but those things which are revealed belong to us."
Do you recall the movie National Treasure starring Nicolas Cage? At the beginning of the movie, the grandfather of the young Benjamin Franklin Gates tells the lad that the secret to finding King Solomon’s treasure "lies with Charlotte." This "secret" turned out to be a two-hundred-year-old pipe that would eventually lead them to a map (which turned out to be the Declaration of Independence). This map would then guide them on a thrilling treasure hunt to more clues, finally ending when they discovered that the two-hundred-year-old pipe was also the key that opened an unseen door that exposed the greatest treasure that mankind has ever known.
Ascend, Part I
In my opinion, Isaiah’s text is a type of Charlotte, and the verb ascend, used to describe Lucifer’s sin, is the eschatological answer to the "pipe," the "key" to unlocking Bible prophecy and the coming apocalypse. Let’s read:
12 "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13 For thou hast said in thine heart: "I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation in the sides of the north; 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the most High." . . .
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee saying, is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; that made the world a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof? (Isa. 14:12–16 KJV)"
I am convinced that Lucifer’s lust to "ascend" above God at the dawn of time in verses 12 to 14 prompted God to judge him and all the insubordinate angels in Genesis 2. Yet, notice the transition Lucifer takes in verse 16; Lucifer "the son of morning," literally becomes a man, whom Isaiah earlier called "the king of Babylon" in chapter 13.
Now this "king," who "made the earth to tremble, that did shake the kingdoms," can be none other than the Antichrist of the apocalypse, who "proclaims himself to be God." Therefore, our "key" to unlocking the apocalypse lies in the original "abomination of desolation," the Hebrew translation of the word ascend, or Alah.
Alah, a prime root, connotes the meaning "to be exalted." It is used twenty-one times in the Old Testament; in every occurrence but four, it carries the meaning of ascending to God in a superlative sense. As for the four other occurrences, they’re the opposite; these ascensions lead not to pleasing God but instead to displeasing him.
In other words, depending on the word’s context, just like its counterpart hayah, ascend can mean both obedience and insubordination to God.
For instance, directly tied to the translation of Alah is the additional meaning of "ascending in smoke." Oddly, this ascending smoke is defined by two types of sacrifices, one called "holocaust" and the other called a "burnt offering"; an example of the "burnt offering" can be found in the book of Exodus:
He [Moses] set the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of Meeting, and offered on it burnt offerings, and grain offerings, as the Lord commanded him. (Exod. 40:29)
The "burnt offering," meaning "a burnt sacrifice offered to God" (i.e., "religious sacrifice"), was first instituted during the times of the Jewish tabernacle and later practiced in the days of the Temple. Basically it was a burnt sacrifice for sin, which represented a type of credit for all who practiced this "sacrifice" until later when the legitimate "burnt offering" came in the person of Jesus Christ.
Holocaust
The second sacrifice, "holocaust," comes from the Greek word holokauston and connotes the meaning of a "religious sacrifice." However, the Hebrew translators of the Strong’s Concordance tie this expression of the "burnt offering" to the Hebrew word evel, from which the English word evil is derived; evel translates to "morally distorted by an act of wickedness or perversion."
In other words, Lucifer’s once "perfect" heart, translated from Ezekiel 28:15 as a "burnt offering," became morally distorted by his desire to "ascend" (exalt himself) above God’s throne. This act of pride corrupted God’s creation, beginning with the word Alah and its intended meaning of a "burnt sacrifice offered to God."
The modern term holocaust was first mentioned in the 1944 book Legal Claims against Germany; before that time, though, holocaust was an unused word that didn’t appear in any literature until the seventeenth century when English writer John Milton defined it as "complete destruction by fire." The word wasn’t seen again until Noah Webster’s 1928 New International Dictionary, in which holocaust was defined as "a burnt sacrifice or offering the whole of which was consumed by fire."
However, following World War II the word holocaust obviously became the defining word for Hitler’s "final solution," after which Webster’s added the following phrase: "the genocidal slaughter of European Jews by the Nazis during World War II." Over time, the term took on a broader meaning of "nuclear destruction" and "mass murder."
Due to the theological meaning that holocaust originally carried, many Jews find the word problematic since it could imply that they were a sacrifice. That’s why instead of holocaust Jews prefer to use the Hebrew word Shoah, which means "desolation." Still, imagine if the Jews had unwittingly been a "religious sacrifice"—not a sacrifice to God but a sacrifice to the "god of this age," Lucifer.
Holy Grail of Prophecy
And that’s the main reason I’m writing this book. I found that when I interpreted by definition the sin of Lucifer (ascend) and its linking word holocaust, I ended up with the frightening passage "A holocaust to Alah."
The Jews who died in Hitler’s death camps died as a result of orders coming straight from the bowels of Hell itself, orders that were from Lucifer and carried on the winds of anti-Semitism. So, yes, according to the language, holocaust could very well mean a sacrifice to Lucifer. And no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t ignore the "root" from which this term came, especially when it’s placed in the light of today’s current events.
Therefore, my goal from this point on is to establish beyond a shadow of a doubt that "a holocaust to Alah" is waiting in man’s future. I found an important piece of that evidence in the ninth chapter of the book of Daniel and in the word curse, which, just like the word ascend, is translated as "Alah."
The word curse has seven different spelling variances. This particular connotation of curse, spelled Alah, is the least used spelling out of the seven. In fact, it’s used only seventeen times throughout the whole Bible, four of which occur specifically in relation to the apocalypse, while one of those can be found in the book of Daniel.
Alah and the Diaspora
This version of the word Alah was used in Moses’ final sermon to the ancient Israelites, who were getting ready to enter the Promised Land after their forty-year sojourn. That sermon detailed the Abrahamic covenant of circumcision (obedience to the law); it was during the reading of the sermon of Deuteronomy 27 that the people were given two pivotal choices, one of blessings and the other of curses. It was by virtue of Israel’s failure to fulfill their end of Abraham’s covenant―now called the Law of Moses―that they eventually got tossed out of the Promised Land, bringing Daniel the prophet to his knees in prayer decades later to make supplication for God’s "people, city, and his Holy Hill" (Temple Mount):
"O Lord . . . all Israel has transgressed your laws and turned away, refusing to obey you. Therefore the curses [Alah] and sworn judgments written in the law of Moses the servant of God, have been poured out on us, because we have sinned against you. (Dan. 9:11)"
These "curses" came as a direct result of sin, perversion, and wickedness, as the first meaning of the word Alah suggests. However, what Daniel didn’t understand―but was soon to find out―is that these curses called Alah would not end until after the unsealing of a scroll some 2,600 years later, as spoken in Revelations 6:1.
Therefore, let’s deconstruct this version of the word Alah. This word is linguistically related to the Old Testament name for God, Eloh (pl. Elohim), and the Aramaic word for God, Elah. In fact, next time you’re on your computer, type the word for God, Eloh; you’ll find that your word processor’s grammar check doesn’t recognize the spelling, but if you right-click your mouse, one of the spelling choices it gives you is the English spelling of Allah.
The link to the Muslim god Alah, however, can be traced to the Hebrew spelling for the word curses, since curses (Alah) is spelled exactly the same as the Aramaic word for God (Elah). And according to Strong’s, Elah carries the additional meaning of a "heathen deity" or "god."
In other words, when Israel perverted God’s "Law," which states, "I am the Lord your God . . . you shall have no other gods (Eloh) before me," they ushered in the curses called "Alah" that were introduced by Lucifer’s ascension called "Alah."
In Deuteronomy, God, speaking through Moses, says:
"And when you look up into the sky and see the . . . moon, do not be enticed into bowing down and worshipping it. (Deut. 17:3)"
From the mountains of Turkey to the banks of the Nile, the most widespread religion of the ancient world was the worship of the moon god. Israel’s failure to keep herself pure from this form of idolatry was grounds for getting temporarily banished (Diaspora) from the Promised Land and receiving the "curse" of "Alah."

The Great Image Where is Rome?
(excerpt from Chapter 2)
|
This vision as a whole simply confirms what I’ve been saying all along: it’s as if the Roman Empire is but a by-product or an offshoot of the Greek Empire. Furthermore, Daniel 2:39, which describes the “belly and thighs of bronze,” also validates this theory of a Greco-Roman earth, because it says, “The kingdom of bronze [or he-goat] shall rule the whole earth.” So, if both the he-goat and the bronze are Greece, and the legs of iron don’t symbolize Rome, who do they symbolize? |

Abraham's Three-Part Covenant to the descendents
(Excerpt from chapter 3)
Abraham’s covenant consists of three basic components: the law, the oil, and the land. Although the main intent of the covenant was spiritual in nature, because of Ishmael it had a flip side or natural side. When Ishmael entered the picture, things changed, because, just like Isaac, God was now inclined to give Ishmael a portion of the covenant. In other words, he too would receive the law, the oil, and the land—thus placing the Arabs at the center of God’s plan for ushering in the messianic age. The apostle Paul says, "For it is written Abraham had two sons: the one by the bondwoman, the other by the free woman. . . . For these are symbolic for two covenants: one representing Mount Sinai in Arabia, which corresponds to Jerusalem, and the other representing Jerusalem above which is free, the mother of us all. . . . Now we brethren, as Isaac, are children of the promise. But as he [Ishmael] was born according to the flesh and then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now. (Gal. 4:21–30)"

The Oil Covenant
(Excerpt from chapter 3)
Oil as a metaphor for Christ—this part of Abraham’s covenant originated from a special oil of the olive tree, called the “anointing oil.” The oil was poured over the heads of both the high priest and the king of Israel as a symbol depicting the presence and power of God.
Yet, I've always been challenged with the thought of a viable biblical link connecting the second part of God’s eternal covenant (oil) with the Arabs’ blessing of black gold.

Israel's Four Stage Re-establishment
(Excerpt from chapter 4)
So, with this in mind, I decided to grab my calculator and start punching some numbers. And what I discovered was nothing short of astonishing: Within this amazing number 2,520, I found the four-stage reestablishment of the nation of Israel. This four-stage progression is mentioned in the twenty-sixth chapter of Leviticus (the “curse” of Alah chapter) when Mosses lays down four distinct punishments of seven “times.”

The Real Millennium
(Excerpt from chapter 4)
I’m sure many of you end-time enthusiasts are perhaps as shocked as I was. How is it possible for modern educated people to miss the year of Christ’s return by such a wide margin? Think about it: Christians all over the world were acting as if Christ would drop out of the sky the moment the millennium clock struck twelve. What happened? Surprisingly, the answer is simple. The reason the year 2000 turned out to be such a prophetic dud is that the year from which it was originally calculated was wrong; the two-thousand-year time clock of Christ’s return was set at the wrong time. Instead of calculating it from the crucifixion of Christ or the third benchmark, which should have been the case, as spoken in Daniel 9:26, Pope Gregory and the Catholic Church calculated it from the birth of Christ. This resulted in our Gregorian time clock basically being set...

The Number of His Name
(Excerpt from chapter 5)
Yet, we can’t talk about the so-called Mark of the Beast without looking at the “number of his name,” or the number 666. This daunting digit has intrigued men for millennia; people have been trying to unlock the mystery surrounding the words “for it is a man’s number. His number is 666.”
They’ve used various numerology systems, such as the Greek, Roman, and Hebrew alphabets, in an attempt to identify the Antichrist. In fact, the list is lengthy, and it includes emperors, popes, and even presidents whose names have the gematria of 666.
John the Revelator says that the way to decipher the “number of the beast” is to “count” his number and then connect it to the number of a man. E. W. Bullinger adds that the triple 6 will be a “test and a proof by which anti-Christ may be revealed.”
If that’s the case, then my theory connecting Alah to Antichrist rests on the fact that Alah’s name carries the summation of 666 in some form or another, right?

The Beheadings of Revelations
(Excerpt from chapter 6)
The teachings of Islam are clear: behead the “infidels” as a means of promoting terror. According to Ibn Ishaq, one of Mohammed’s biographers, “the founder of Islam himself approved of the beheadings of 700 Jews in Medina, whose bodies were stacked in trenches.” The Bible says that in the days directly preceding the return of Christ, Christians will be executed in mass numbers. I believe the evidence points to these beheadings occurring primarily because of insubordination to Islamic law—the law requiring individuals to pay homage to Alah and his image or to take his “mark” of submission. Obviously, this will promote fear on an apocalyptic level.
